Priapism associated with lumbar stenosis in a dog

Priapism, a persistent long-lasting involuntary erection of the penis, is uncommon in dogs. In this report, the case of a 13-year-old male Pointer, referred to our services due to persistent exposition of the penis, is described. This condition was consecutive to an intermittent priapism situation lasting for several days, which has been initially attributed to the inflammation and haematoma associated with a p...

Hand gesture recognition system based in computer vision and machine learning :...

Sendo uma forma natural de interação homem-máquina, o reconhecimento de gestos implica uma forte componente de investigação em áreas como a visão por computador e a aprendizagem computacional. O reconhecimento gestual é uma área com aplicações muito diversas, fornecendo aos utilizadores uma forma mais natural e mais simples de comunicar com sistemas baseados em computador, sem a necessidade de utilização de dis...

Effect of anatomical origin and cell passage number on the stemness and osteoge...

Mesenchymal stem cells have a great potential for application in cell based therapies, such as tissue engineering. Adipose derived stem cells have shown the capacity to differentiate into several lineages, and have been isolated in many animal species. Dog is a very relevant animal model to study several human diseases and simultaneously an important subject in veterinary medicine. Thus, in this study we asses...

Uterine prolapse with associated rupture in a Podengo bitch

A case of uterine prolapse coexisting with uterine horn rupture in a 3-year-old Portuguese Podengo bitch, which is an uncommon occurrence, is described. The female was presented with a history of recent parturition, with delivery of four healthy puppies that were normally tended and nursed. The situation developed after an uneventfully pregnancy, and no direct causative factor was identified. The duration of th...

Canine adipose stem cells : the influence of the anatomy and passaging on the s...

Periodontal disease (PD) is an inflammatory pathology highly prevalent both in humans and in dogs, which is characterized by destruction of the periodontal ligament, cementum and alveolar bone. The development of new therapies, such as Tissue Engineering strategies, is mandatory due to the inefficacy of conventional therapies currently used. Dog is a very relevant animal model to study several human diseases, s...

Hospital Resource Utilization and Treatment Cost of Skeletal-Related Events in ...

BACKGROUND: Skeletal-related events (SREs) occur frequently in patients with bone metastases as a result of breast (BC) and prostate (PC) cancers. They increase both morbidity and mortality and lead to extensive health-care resource utilization. METHODS: Health care resource utilization by BC/PC patients with at least one SRE during the preceding 12 months was assessed through retrospective chart review. SRE-tr...

Ocorrência de Hepatozoon spp. (Apicomplexa, Hepatozoidae) em serpentes do gêner...

The occurrence of Hepatozoon gamont in the blood cells of Bothrops jararaca and B. jararacussu in captivity was analyzed. The prevalence of infection by Hepatozoon spp. was 50% and few erythrocytes contained the gamonts. Results suggest that the infection by Hepatozoon spp. occurred in the natural environment or after the captivity.
